Need somewhere to think out loud,

How those BBs working for you? I saw you recently switched over from your MA envelopes. My brother trades with BBs and swears by them.

First day trading them, still working on trusting them, they do seem to be very strong, impressed so far.

Ofcourse, universe hates me, so always trading it seems at a huge disadvantage LOL

SL back to 58, lets stay in while BB range is valid and flat, let it chop.

Odds are, LOSE as posted the trade!
 
SL hit -8, see universe hates me!! :(

-9 on the day, 1/2 sized, -$45.

Annoyingly BB top, held just a tiny blip.

Should of took +1 flipped long, played the range, but easy to say after.
 
Went higher short term, action is to slow to read anything really, 18:00 might pick up?

Think I should call it a day and try again tomorrow am.

EA setup a nice bottom @1.5234, that bounced +10 here after comm's, missed it.
 
DAX long 57, see if this little up move has legs :)

FXCM have tweaked the DAX, can set the SL tighter, real real balls ache before and 1pt spread full time, used to go to 2pts in the evening.

4pip SL, think min was 8 before and it would play up trying for 10 at times.
 
Going my way briefly, thanks universe for lulling me into a false sense of security before you slap me silly, I know your game!!

3/4 pts on offer, hmmm the excitment is driving me wild!!

Go on break up, make my day!!

Top of BB range and stalling, hard to take just 3 or 2 or 1 okay 0, 2.
 
Thanks universe, broke down, slipped out -6 for a -4SL, just 1 day it'll go my way.

Entries are good, SL's are tight, just a run of bad random chance or what! :(
 
Chart look, I really can't get a break, here are my 3 losing trades, 1 profit much much earlier!!

X's mark the trades, just arrows where I should of been trading, annoyingly none of the shoulds lost, had my finger on the button on most of them, but didn't push it!!

First trade, Lower BB, hoping for a move back to highs atleast for a quick profit, sadly NO!!

2nd at at 10950 Short, hoping for a downtrend move, sadly No!

3rd I should of took the +4 where the next Short Op was, closed 51, low 49 typical.

Just added some F's for Fails, didn't take but they where setups!

So add up the numbers

+15
-5 Real
-8 Real
+10
-6R ( +4 there )
+10
-6
+8
+15
+15

Total = +48 or $240 at my 1/2 size.

Better off, when the trend kicks in, but need to profit in all conditions as sometimes no trend.

So Carry on, get better, take more setups, keep losses small and all looking promising.

No point trading, 5:30pm to 6:30pm, lunch time that's for certain, blown confidence, missed good move up :(
